Here's a version I heard on Spotify: THE ROSE IN HER HAIR English words by Al Dubin; music by Harry Warren; ©1935. Italian words by Manuel Emanuel.* As sung by Dick Powell on "The Great Songwriters – Harry Warren" (2012) CHORUS: In her eyes, there was moonlight and the rose in her hair. In my arms, there was no one, so I just put her there. On her lips was a promise; in my heart was a prayer. When I finally went, I went home with the scent Of the rose in her hair. VERSE: Love is a rose and it grows like a rose. I found a rose nestled in someone's hair. Sweet was the rose, and never a maid was so fair. [Repeat chorus] [Chorus replacing lyrics with "ah-ah-ah" etc.] [Chorus in Italian that I am unable to transcribe.] - - - * Songwriting credit from IMDb.com soundtrack info for "Broadway Gondolier."
